The gray wolves, killed by the "throat slit," lay on the ground. Their companions, rushing from behind, did not stop for a moment, but instead trampled over their powerless bodies. By the time the entire gray wolf pack had passed through like a tide, not a single gray wolf corpse could be pieced together intact.

Lu Xiu gazed at the pack of gray wolves gradually disappearing from his sight, feeling somewhat strange.

The gray wolf pack did not stop for even a moment because of the death of one of their own kind.

It's normal for the pack not to stop if only one gray wolf dies, but I killed over a hundred! They practically covered an area of ​​a hundred meters in radius.

But the gray wolves coming from behind acted as if they didn't see them, trampling over their own kind and continuing to run deeper into the Breeze Forest.

"Could there be something deep within the Breeze Forest that's attracting them?" Lu Xiu wondered.

The word "attracted" is not enough to describe the state of that pack of gray wolves.

It should be described as... seduction? Manipulation?

Lu Xiu felt that the pack of gray wolves did indeed seem to be under control.

As for what could control the gray wolf, Lü Xiu had no idea. It could be some rare mythical beast or some rare treasure!

Having lived in Tianqing Town for so many years, Lü Xiu had heard many stories of people encountering rare mythical beasts and uncommon treasures, becoming rich overnight. But he couldn't rule out traps, or the tricks of some knowledge hunter—that wasn't uncommon either...

It's not advisable to follow up and investigate.

Lu Xiu's "Beast King Transformation" will only last for 10 minutes, and it will end soon. If those gray wolves bite him back then, he won't even have a chance to cry.

Taking advantage of the Beast King's transformation skill still having a few minutes of duration, Lü Xiu quickly reaped the spoils.

It condenses its misty body into blades, searching for and cutting off the wolf fangs from the mutilated wolf carcasses scattered everywhere.

The value of gray wolves is the same as that of blue wolves; the only valuable part is their venomous fangs.

The Hunter Association has issued a commission to acquire any wolf fangs, whether blue or gray.

As for the wolf pelts, after being trampled by the gray wolf pack, there wasn't a single piece of good meat left among the gray wolves. Most of the wolf pelts, which were the surface, were badly torn and tattered. Lu Xiu found it too troublesome to take the tattered wolf pelts back to sell.

The blades formed from the condensed mist quickly harvested hundreds of gray wolf fangs. Of course, Lu Xiu couldn't condense hundreds of mist blades like he did with "Mist Assassination," he only had five or six. But he could accurately lock onto the wolf fangs in the muddy, bloody carnage, so the harvesting speed wouldn't be slow.

The ten minutes are up.

The fog gradually dissipated, and the flesh and blood body slowly separated from the faint black fog.

Lu Xiu's flesh and blood body was revealed, with the Shadow King floating around him in a thin mist.

Standing firmly on the ground, Lü Xiu stomped his feet twice and clenched his fists. Although the experience of transforming into an elemental body was good, he still preferred the feeling of his physical body being grounded.

Solid ground provides reassurance.

withdraw!

In the few minutes that Lü Xiu was harvesting wolf fangs, he had already seen two or three level-ten phantom beasts come from the depths of the Breeze Forest and were now gnawing on the gray wolf's carcass.

This "feast" is too bloody and covers too much area, making it too easy to attract other carnivorous hunters. Before long, even more hunters will appear here.

Lü Xiu didn't need to clean it deliberately.

His gaze swept over the two phantom beasts that were enjoying a delicious meal, and Lü Xiu turned and left. He reached out and grabbed the Shadow King, transforming it into a shadow robe that he put on, and his figure quickly disappeared into the shadow of the big tree.

Just three minutes after Lü Xiu left.

A hunter dressed in leather armor and carrying a large black bow arrived at the scene of the Shadow Mist assassination from the northeast. He was immediately stunned by the sight before him.

Countless gray wolf carcasses lay scattered, broken pieces in the bushes, their splattered blood turning the surrounding trees into a blood-red hellscape! A small, blood-red river flowed through the area, creating a truly horrifying scene!

"What...what happened here?" The hunter was shocked and became wary, not daring to take a step forward.

Such a bloody scene was clearly not a battlefield for hunters; rather, it resembled some monstrous, savage mythical beast passing through the area, indiscriminately tearing apart any mythical creatures that entered its field of vision...

After standing there for more than ten minutes, the hunter finally mustered the courage to step into this blood-red hell. He mainly noticed that many carnivorous phantom beasts had feasted without being harmed, leading him to guess that the terrifying phantom beast had already left.

After carefully observing the surroundings, the hunter took out a pure white crystal and put it to his lips.

"Headquarters, this is Tracker Number 3."

"I followed the trail of the gray wolf pack into the Breeze Forest and discovered something unusual in the bushes on the forest's outskirts. Hundreds of gray wolves were slaughtered; the scene was... bloody and horrifying. It seems there might be an unknown, powerful phantom beast lurking nearby!"

...

Sunny Town.

A giant camel, five meters tall and ten meters long, entered the town through the north gate with the "South River Merchant Guild" and finally stopped at the entrance of the Hunter Association.

The chamber of commerce staff immediately began loading and unloading the goods.

Two people jumped off the camel-drawn passenger carriage: a middle-aged man around forty years old and a young man of seventeen or eighteen.

The middle-aged man was tall and strong, about 2.3 meters tall, with broad shoulders and a thick waist. His muscles were as tough as steel. He had black eyes and blond hair, and a high nose bridge. Even though he was middle-aged and his features showed some signs of vicissitude, he was still a handsome uncle who would turn heads on the street.

The young man looked somewhat immature, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and a tall and straight posture like a pine tree. At eighteen years old, he was at the most dazzling moment of his youth. His short, black hair fluttered in the wind, and his brows exuded confidence and nonchalance. His right hand rested casually on the hilt of a long sword as he surveyed his surroundings.

Both men were wearing white hooded trench coats with a gold coin pattern printed on the chest, which seemed to be the standard uniform of some organization.

Led by a middle-aged man and followed closely by a young man, the two entered the Hunter Association and took out a gold coin as a "token".

The Hunter Association staff immediately took the two to see Jiang Chunyu, the Hunter Association president of Sky Sunny Town.

"People from the [Golden Gathering]?!" Jiang Chunyu was taken aback when she saw the gold coins in the middle-aged man's hand, and quickly asked, "What brings you two to Skyline Town?"

"We've received intelligence that the [Nest] has appeared near Sunny Town!"
